It was the seventh match played by RabbitSnore and the sixth match played by conradslater<ref>https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLfiMJj7wWAXQ9DTNJpBmktHPyWC98vr19 All except his final match with Tentor521 fully survives compiled in this playlist, in chronological order.</ref>. A match between the then-future co-leader and the then-current leader/owner of the [[YouChew forums]], between Tennis's first [[tennis staff|"Tennis Fuck"]] and its inventor, it very quickly became a match enshrined as legendary and immensely influential due to the storied history of its players in regards to the early YTP community, the wild and at times unrestrained content of and the unique approach taken with each response, the longform literary content of the video descriptions of each round, and for being a very early match to go all the way to 9 rounds. The match was intended to go to Round 10, but conradslater declared the match completed when his final turn came around, considering RabbitSnore's Round 9, "Syphozoa Synthesis"(2007), to be an appropriate finale to the match.<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/19-tennis-completed/86371-poop-tennis-rabbitsnore-vs-conrad-slater-round-9/2.html#post-3528278</ref> The match is tremendously experimental and challenging even for its era, with the final two rounds taking up about 10 minutes of the 25 minute runtime, making for easily the longest match to be played in the first months of tennis as a whole. Most rounds are crafted through longform, gradual edits to the material, with Rabbit's rounds in particular opting for PiP framing for multiple segments that are then repeated in unison for minutes at a time. Conrad's Round 6 creates the largest pivot in direction the match takes by being made largely up of added footage, with much of the previous round being contained within an introductory montage. The final three rounds all contain footage of Shigeru Miyamoto at the 2005 E3 showcase for the Nintendo Wii, in which he asks to the audience in introducing ''Wii Sports''(Wii, 2006), "Tennis, anyone?" The final round consists of a slow moving tapestry of every previous round in the match reused -- in reference to the long, surreal descriptions uploaded with each round, Rabbit remarked of this round "I think I successfully saddled the jellyfish, but I'll let each person decide that for him- or herself."<ref>https://archive.yellowtealpurple.net/youchew/forum/19-tennis-completed/86371-poop-tennis-rabbitsnore-vs-conrad-slater-round-9/2.html#post-3519880</ref>

RabbitSnore subsequently considered this match in high regard, referring to it as one of his proudest moments and one the best, most challenging and extreme matches he ever played.

While Conrad's tennis material was privated for many years before being made public again in late 2025 in anticipation of the documentary "The World of Youtube Poop" by Clique Here, in which he is prominently featured, his rounds for this match remain private presumably because of their content. They were however already reuploaded on [[TennisFacksJr]] in October 2024 about a year before his reappearance. RabbitSnore's rounds became lost when his account vanished from YouTube in October 2019, and remained in that status for seven years until they were all rediscovered in hard copy archives originally made by {{Foghorn Scorpio}}. His rounds were subsequently reuploaded to [[TennisFacksJr]], and the match was first compiled into a single video on the [[YouWouldBeWelcome]] account in August 2026.
